Malice Mizer – Unmei No Deai
un événment inouï
une ironie du destin
sans préambule
toute n’est que recommencement
le passé… le présent… le futur
tournent en spirale
ici la bas soudain
ils reviennent
son esprit reste tourjours vivace
il peut revenit d’un moment à l’autre
an incredible event
an irony of fate
without warning
all that is recommenced
the past … this … the future
turn spiral
by the sudden low
they return
his spirit remains alive still
it can come back from one moment to another

You, the liar; and me, the crybaby
Why can’t it go well?
My fashionable hair, and rhinestone nails…
You don’t notice, do you?
LOVE
isn’t about sad tears or stuff like that
When my eyes dry, they only hurt
Change it to only “I love”
Take only you, me,
and some hot feelings
I want to be connected to you always
Maybe you can love even an uncute crying face.
The too-easy-going you, and the selfish me
Sorry, because I become good
I want to hear your voice! even in bed
My head is your parade
Ah
The sleepless sky streches
The elegant constellation KAKERA
The shooting star that overflowed into my heart
Only you, only me,
recieving the sun’s kiss
I want to be connected to you always
Your (???) thing, I love it all
Take only you, me,
and some hot feelings
Only you, only me
Don’t let out burning love die out
I want to be connected to you always
The moment we see the fireworks, let’s softly kiss

Afternoon’s whisper
Aah… On the other side of the smoke there are countless beckoning shadows
Don’t get in the way, my late reason, my natural instinct
From the deepest part of opposing mirrors, it continues
Let’s begin this ritual
The stage is above the clouds
The victims, the pasts of two people
The spell is a whisper
The wish is eternal love
The sun is smiling like it has mercy on two people
From the limits of the sky, smiling
The love of two people, as limitless as the sky.

Memory and sky
The moment the wind of your gaze drilled a hole into my forehead,
it swept over this entire world.
“Erase all with only light, leave me without delight”
To be human, is that in a moment of anonymity, everyone vanishes.
Screaming, sobbing, gasping voices-
a way to obstruct those
is a pressing, wrapping, expanding silence.
While I think about the premature day when I felt death for the first time,
I, who avoided the light, possessed by the room that scared me, alone…
Thinking of the day when all the colours vanished from the world…
When I reunite with you, will I think, “I want to kill you”? Or “I want to hold you”?
The memory and sky I held on to,
Beyond words, beyond feeling, only you here
right before my eyes.
The memory and now I longed for…
Make my eyes dizzy
My legs cower
My bones creak
My bones shiver

That shining time…
That white and serene place…
Now is the time to take it back with my hand.
Life’s pulse continues again and
The will that stands in my loneliness, I scratched onto my chest.
In the bright sky, a floating mist
gave birth to a black shadow
Inside you, the weakness that had begun to sprout.
That loneliness burned in your heart.
The past you cannot return to, you let live.
The tears cried will surely someday
begin to soak the dried earth.
Now I go from that light and shadow I hold inside my chest
The shape of a trembling and dead ideal
Open the wounded black feather
To the thought that we can cross over even the perplexing limits of the night
あの輝く時間
白く澄んだあの場所
この手に今取り戻す時さ命の鼓動が鳴り続けて
孤独に立つ意志を胸に刻んだ
光る空に浮かんだ霧が
生み出した黒い影
君の中に芽生え始めた小さな弱さが
その寂しさは心の中こがして
戻れない過去を捨てて生きる
降らせた涙は何時かきっと
乾いた大地を濡らし固める
今はその胸の光と影を抱きしめたまま行こう
揺れて消えた理想の姿
傷ついた黒い羽広げ
迷わず夜空の果てまでも越える想い

Kids Alive – Bokura no Bouken lyrics (Hikaru no Go ending theme)
ボクらの冒険 Bokura no Bouken- by Kids Alive
(Translation by Tsuuyaku. Kanji lyrics from Surreal.co.jp )
I wonder where it is…
The treasure that is only mine
Right now I’m setting off for a big adventure…
Tender rays of sunlight
A premonition of a journey’s beginning
The sky and the flowers… Look! they are smiling too.
From this point on, I wonder what awaits me?
A deep breath
I softly slip my hand into the door to my dreams…
Let’s go!
While the wind blows,
While my heart is shaking in excitement,
While I hold a pure white map in one hand,
I start running!
To grant my wish,
I’ll breakthrough any walls
While the wind blows,
While I paint tommorow,
How far
How long
‘Til I get to the point where I am good enough?
Simple anxiety, and a complex future too,
There is nothing, nothing I’m afraid of anymore.
I should search for it slowly
How hurting
is the same for everyone…
Me, the beginner, is the “Traveller of Dreams”!
The sky and the flowers… Look! They are smiling too.
There’s only one true path for me
Must not give up before I tie my shoelaces…
So!
While the wind blows,
While my heart is shaking in excitement,
While I hold a pure white map in one hand,
While the wind blows,
While I paint tommorow,
How far,
How long
‘Til I get to the point where I am good enough?
I refuse to lose!
I refuse to cry !
Until that day when this dream is granted,
When that sky has smiled
And those flowers have smiled.
Because I’ll be smiling too, one day,
Because I’ll get through any walls
There’s nothing, nothing I’m afraid of anymore.

Not so ‘Elite’ translations in ‘Hikaru no Go’ opening theme
Update: The Japanese text was fixed after the first 9 episodes or so, I think the English translation was still wrong.
Ed note: On a brighter note, the majority of the translation in the actual anime is right, so it seems EF just slipped up on the song.
I started noticing something weird when I was reading the song subtitles in Elite Fansubbers ‘Hikaru no Go’ sub. I like to sing along to songs, or I wanted to sing along, until I realised alot of the written words in the EF sub, didn’t match the words in the actual music.
Here are the original lyrics compared to the EF sub:
EF Sub: nakama tono magure
Original: Nakama to tawamure
EF Sub: Dakara dayori takaramono noni
Original: Dakara mayoi nagara mo tomo ni
This is no good at all. I mean, I’m not being hard on these people, because its good that someone takes the time to translate, but certainly there is a lot of room for improvement. These are really bad errors. Why? Because if they can’t even HEAR the Japanese speech correctly, how are they supposed to translate things right in the actual anime? With lyrics, the could even check it out from other sources, such as googling, to see that the words are correct… (which they obviously haven’t done), but in the anime itself there isn’t any reference. So a) They transcribed the lyrics wrong, and b) they also translated it wrong and c) they didn’t check it. To me, that’s a pretty sloppy job. People rely on subbers to bring a somewhat correct translation, so I think the most important thing firstly is to hear words acurately, secondly to translate the meaning, and thirdly, to put this in reasonable English. I actually don’t mind semi-incorrect English because its better than someone making up something they don’t know in Japanese into something wrong but grammatically correct in English – that would be worse.
Let’s examine an example of their mistake, in-depth:
1. EF Sub: nakama tono magure
Original: Nakama to tawamure
EF Sub’s English text: “Divisions with my friends”
Actual meaning of the EF sub’s Japanese text: “chance/fluke” (magure), with friends
Actual meaning of Original Japanese lyrics: Playing/having fun with friends
2. EF Sub: Dakara dayori takaramono noni ikiteikouyo mirai e
Original: Dakara mayoi nagara mo tomo ni ikiteikouyo mirai e to
EF Sub English text: “And so before any great treasure let’s live towards the future”
Actual meaning of EF Sub: “For the purpose of the treasure/treasured item, let’s strive together towards the future”. (‘Dayori’ doesn’t have a meaning here, as it’s not a word, and even as two seperate words, it doesn’t belong here).
Original meaning of original Japanese lyrics: “Even while ‘in doubt’/’lost/confused’, let’s strive together towards the future”
(Note: Literally, ‘ikiteikou’ means something like “to live”, not as in we are ‘merely’ alive, but more like what it means to be alive – like living and experiencing our lives, and whats important in our lives and so on. So here I have transcribed the closest meaning, because ‘living together towards the future’ doesn’t sound right in English).
Now, you might be able to see another surprising thing: The actual meaning of the mis-transliterated sub makes more sense than their own English translation of their own misheard lyrics! Ironic.
And a short grammatical note to future subbers or people learning Japanese:
Japanese isn’t always written in the same order as English, in fact a lot of the time it isn’t. In song lyrics, the lines of the song are not necessarily seperate sentences or clauses, it fact, it is very common for sentences in songs to traverse lines. The only way to work out what the sentences are, is by understanding Japanese grammar.
‘Dakara’ means ‘because’. The clause, or the reason, comes before the ‘dakara’, not after. It’s O.K. if they translate it as ‘so’, as long as the text after it isn’t written as the ‘reason’. The reason, or clause, is in the previous line of the song.
Also, ‘nagara’ is translated wrong in both the lyrics translation on the website link to the original Japanese lyrics, and the sub. ‘Nagara’ means ‘while’, eg. “tabe nagara kaite imasu”= “I am writing while (also) eating”. (Taberu is to eat, kaku is to write… Mayou is lost/confused/perplexed, hence ‘mayoi nagara’).
Bonus Easter Egg: If you watch later episodes of the EF subs, there is an episode where the sub says “Wasabi”, for no reason. And another part where “Thankyou” is subbed as ‘sankyu’.
Death Note: How to Read 13
Nice pics of the collectors edition here
Spoilers abound, but you won’t be able to read it if you can’t read Japanese. Plus, L’s name revealed.
You’re gonna get spoilers here too, from Death Note: How to Read 13, so look away now if you don’t want them…

Ok anyway,
So Misa commits suicide a year after Light’s Death.
Near becomes the new L (obviously), this is shown in the last manga.
The ownership of Death Note’s: Near owned Jealous’ deathnote, Light owned Rem’s Deathnote, but couldn’t use it for obvious reasons, Shidou (one of the shinigami) got his note back, the one Ryuk had tricked the king into giving him.
The Kira supporter with the candle at the end of the manga is not Misa. (Which means she is just an anonymous member of the Kira worshipping cult, to my best knowledge, no other background detail has been given).
Whose’s name is in which note:
Ryuk’s notebook : Yagami Light
Shidous notebook: (Mostly everyone that Light killed)
Jealous’ notebook: Mello, Rod Ross, Mafia, and some others.
Rem’s: L, Watari , and one other.
For a reader request,
Mello’s blood type is A,
Height: 171cm
Weight: 52kg
Near’s blood type is B
Height: 155cm Weight 40kg
Aw, Near is really little.
Though here is something unbelievable: Misa is 36kg. Cmon, Near is like so short and he’s 40kg and he’s not fat or anything, Misa is taller and not like anorexic. So I don’t think she’s 36kg ;p.
Misa- Blood Type A
Height: 152cm Weight 36kg
